[edit] Split
I think it would make sense to split out the 728-word long "Injuries" section into its own page, Hamstring injuries. Any objections? --Arcadian 00:53, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think I would be a terrible idea, but let's see if anyone else has anything to say...ProfessorFokker 04:37, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] stretching
which part is it that somebody who is not flexible would work on stretching, for example to touch her toes?--Sonjaaa 19:31, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
- I don't understand exactly what do you mean but both the hurdlers stretch and standing hamstring stretch (where usually you touch your toes) work the hamstring. You don't necessarily need to touch your toes, but I'd say that eventually you might be able to after your body adapts. —Drowne | Talk 18:47, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

- I've often heard the terms short and long hamstrings, I know I have short hamstrings because I can't touch my toes (in fact without warming up I can only get within 6 inches of my toes; about 3 inches after getting warm). Can someone make a good reference to this in this article, because I don't understand fully what "short hamstrings" are. Mglovesfun 12:58, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nerve supply
Nerve supply is usually sciatic - only in a couple cases of anatomical variation where the sciatic divides higher in the thigh could the muscles be supplied by the tibial. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Snellios (talk • contribs) 22:23, 29 December 2006 (UTC).
[edit] Cleanup needed
Who initially wrote this article? It really needs to be cleaned up. The grammar and wording of this article is far from encyclopedic, and it sounds like it was written by a third grader.
